With the 2025 NFL Draft recently completed, teams are now focusing on their preparation for training camps. The offseason has been particularly dynamic for several NFC teams.

The Seattle Seahawks trade of Geno Smith for Sam Darnold marks a significant transition, while the Minnesota Vikings hand over the offense to second-year player J.J. McCarthy. The Los Angeles Rams almost moved on from Matthew Stafford but opted to retain their star quarterback, while acknowledging the departure of Cooper Kupp.

After evaluating roster changes, it’s an ideal moment for power rankings to assess the NFC’s competitive landscape.

16. New Orleans Saints

Tyler Shough appears poised to start for New Orleans as Derek Carr struggles with injury, indicating a challenging debut season for new head coach Kellen Moore.

15. New York Giants

Despite being ranked low, the Giants show promise with recent additions like Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston. If coached well by Brian Daboll, rookie Jaxson Dart may rise to prominence like other Ole Miss quarterbacks.

14. Carolina Panthers

The fate of the Panthers hinges on whether Bryce Young can maintain his end-of-season success from 2024. Additionally, they improved their offense by drafting Tetairoa McMillan in the first round.

13. Seattle Seahawks

Concerns grow as Sam Darnold replaces Geno Smith. Potential drawbacks may unfold due to a weakened offensive line and the departure of DK Metcalf.

12. Arizona Cardinals

The addition of Josh Sweat aims to bolster the defensive line, and if Marvin Harrison Jr. makes a leap, they could improve as the year progresses.

11. Dallas Cowboys

Challenges await for new coach Brian Schottenheimer, but the return of Dak Prescott could stabilize the team.

10. Atlanta Falcons

Emerging from the shadows, the Falcons’ future appears bright with Michael Penix Jr. The team’s revamped pass rush should make a significant difference this season.

9. Chicago Bears

The Bears build their offense around a promising young quarterback and head coach Ben Johnson.

8. Minnesota Vikings

J.J. McCarthy returns from injury this season, signaling hope for a strong offensive display.

7. San Francisco 49ers

Despite significant player changes, key talents like Christian McCaffrey remain, ensuring they can still perform at a high level.

6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Buccaneers retain stars like Chris Godwin while boosting their offense with impressive draft picks.

5. Green Bay Packers

Concerns linger in the cornerback position, but a solid roster led by Jordan Love can still compete at the highest level.

4. Los Angeles Rams

Retaining Matthew Stafford signals a commitment to success, alongside drafted heavy hitters like Terrance Ferguson.

3. Washington Commanders

Jayden Daniels is the focus as the Commanders surround him with essential support to avoid a sophomore slump.

2. Detroit Lions

The Lions maintain a strong roster but face challenges with the loss of notable coaches.

1. Philadelphia Eagles

As reigning Super Bowl champions, the Eagles remain on top until challenged, although offensive changes due to coaching shifts loom.
